In response to Chris Rackley (Letters, September 19), the fact thousands may have died horribly in New York on September 11 does not justify the deaths and breaches of human rights inflicted by the US and UK in the frenzy of revenge we have seen in the past four years.

Anyone with an ounce of sense and who cares for decency and democracy sees straight through such reactionary comments.

The Argus should be applauded from the rooftops of Brighton for its support of Omar Deghayes and his family.
